    buff the 45?

    The weapons damage remodel a few updates back was a massive improvement. It made all the weapons have their own niche. I do think that the 45 needs rebalancing as its currently the same or less powerful than 9mm which makes the rarer 45 weapons far less useful. In the old days the fX was the top tier pistol and harder to find as you had to go inland. Nowadays you can get a glock off the spawn and you have no reason to drop it for an fx as the glock is harder hitting, the same mag capacity and easier to find ammo. The old pistol tier list IG- bottom of the barrell 1911- smaller mag fed but more damaging rounds cz75 and glock- decent standard pistol Magum- massive damage no attachments fx45- higher damage high end pistol Desert eagle - high end pistol How it is now m11- tiny damage but excellent zed killer IG same role 1911- tiny mag and the same damage as 9mm- it should be better than the p1 and with a damage that still makes you consider using it over a 9mm handgun p1- Pretty much the same damage as the 1911 but can hold 2 more rounds if chambered Magnum fx45- Should be higher but the 9mm values put it here Glock and CZ Desert Eagle Ditto the UMP was next best thing if you didnt have an assault rifle. It did more damage than the mp5. Now they do more or less the same damage but the mp5 has 900 rounds per minute fire rate which makes the ump redundant. Having a punchier ump would give you more inclination to wiegh up running a UMP(slower fire rate but heavier hitting) or an MP5( Faster fire rate) The only cartridge values that need to be changed is the 45 by giving it 5 to 8 more damage per shot

    Any new maps coming to console?

    Apparently not. Its a shame as even one more would be great.

    The UMP

    Ha! I noticed that on wobos tools actually! If they fix the 600 RPM cap all the same the issue persists all the same.

    The UMP

    While I love the recent damage changes in Dayz making the firearms feel different I think the UMP needs a redressing. In the past it was an excellent mid tier weapon but its fallen off the cliff in the last few patches and completely eclipsed by the mp5 which is far more common. 45 Damage is now on par with the 9mm-in the older patches 45 was much more powerful. This damage along with the speed of the 9mm round and being able to found in houses and police stations make the ump far less practical a weapon to carry. The MP5 fires far faster at 900 rounds a minute versus the UMPs 600 rpm making it vastly superior now they both do the same damage. The slower shooting but more damaging ump used to be good alternative to the mp5 but there is no reason at all to bother with it now. Finally, its interesting to note that despite the reduction in the effectiveness of the ump in recent patch notes its still actually counted in stashes and hoarder in the types file on vanilla- this is probably something that should be tweaked as the weapon is so mediocre now it probably shouldn't considering the vastly more powerful ak74u/ak74 and m16s are not.

    Private servers on xbox

    Yeah dude. Dayz private servers are rented by players. Theres plenty of them already hosted by other people you can join. All the decent ones will never ask you for a penny to have you play on them. Search the thread and you'll see plenty of links to other private servers that might suit your playstyle. Download Discord app as most of them use this to allow you to apply to them

    Make the mosin great again

    The bears are far more tanky than real bears but it's a game. Bear in mind*, wolves are no where near as vicious towards humans as they are in dayz but it works great in game. * did you see what I did there?

    NCRP Private Servers

    I've been on the servers here about a month. Had a good bit of fun on chenarus and now playing Livonia nearly exclusively with NCRP so here is my feedback. I've been shopping around a few servers now a this is far and away the best dayz experience you can get on the console. Most importantly, you arent bombarded with reams and reams of rules and regulations you get on all the many other private servers that stifle the flow of the game. On Livonia for example there is a sole safe town where KOS is banned but the rest of the map anything goes. That said even outside the safe zone people here are more likely to interact rather than kill you on sight. You still feel on edge at all times which is the essence of playing dayz. In addition, even if you arent into RP you'll still be welcome to play in the server. If you are into the RP aspect however the rabbit hole goes as deep as you want it too with a large subgroup that have ingame journals etc Theres is a very friendly and committed team running it but the they allow anyone who plays the server regularly to pitch in with ideas and feedback.New people here are made very welcome when they join too. A few of the members make YouTube vid of goings on in the server too. Theres even an ingame radio too that really adds to the Immersion that's run from time to time by the players. Other important points. No duping- there is an apparent zero tolerance for this type of shit in here. No alts- dayz is a survival game so there is no reason for an alt character you can cheat with to respawn during a baseraid or hide inside an impenetrable base. 1st person- there is a reason all the good dayz youtube content is in first person. It's more immersive and exciting. The corner peeking meta doesn't exist here. Normal night cycle - to many servers take out night altogether. I used to play dayz with a group of 12 who all now no longer play the game due to various issues with what the game has become on public servers or how ridiculous the way a lot of the private servers are run. NCRP runs dayz the way it's meant to played and I'm hoping to get all my old team up and running on it. This server will be the console version of the PC epic servers like dayz underground the way its going. Keep up the good work

    First Person Servers

    Game is a hardcore survival game. You shouldn't have an invisible drone following you around and letting you look over walls and around corners. They should all be first person servers. Old but great video that goes into detail

    25 Queue to join?

    Yeah it's a pain in the ass. Especially when your character dies and you respawn as a someone you dont want to play as- you need to leave to main menu to select a new character.

    Persistence on/off meaning?

    Buried loot and bases wont stay. It's easier to find loot on these servers but bohemia normally only have them live for a short time to deal with increased player count post a big update

    Xbox Mouse & Keyboard Support?

    Mouse and keyboard seems to be only on 3pp servers. I suppose since the corner peekers can already see around corners they might as well have enhanced aiming too.

    Is Livonia worth the buy ? (And how is the game after 1.06?)

    Yeah I decided my guy in chenarus to get an authentic start. However theres assholes with full gear running around killing people. It's tough. Haven't found any food but I like that. Still think it's stupid you can server hop go chenarus for supplies.

    Dev Question about Livonia; Fresh Characters?

    If my chenarus character carries over he going to have to bite the end of his tundra. I want to start fresh on the new map

    Alt accounts

    Exactly. I raided a base a while ago and as soon as I shoot one guy loads of others began pouring out. Same 4 or 5 guys with 3 or 4 accounts each They also use the alt accounts to dupe.
